drivers entered the Lexan bodied G-Jet race on the Lady Gray track and only one driver would blast out 225 laps to take home the checkered flag in the Pro Division race.  John Reimels’ 225 laps were 8 better than second place finisher John Stezelecki who just managed to beat out Eric Eckhardt by one lap for second place in the Pro division – Stez scoring 217 laps to Eric’s 216 laps.  Nantasket Beach Race Club member Paul Ryer took the 4th place finish with 231 laps.  Reimels, Stez and Ryer all are NBRC members and they clearly took advantage of their local knowledge of the track by taking three out of the four top spots.

The Lady Gray ready for a day of serious racing

 Congratulations to John Reimels for a fantastic victory.

In the Amateur Division Chris Takas sailed into Nantasket Beach to take a very impressive victory.  We don’t see Chris often but when he does attend, he’s a real competitor and difficult to beat.  Chris banged out the victory with 200 laps compared to second place finisher Peter Lentros who managed 195 laps.  Oh Jimmy Colligan took the third position with 191.12 laps to take a squeaker over fourth finisher Benny Leyro 191.06 by just six sections. Benny took the four hour drive from Yonkers NY to make this event. Congratulations to Chris and to all participants for a great race.

competition by whipping up 493 laps or 7 laps over second place finisher John Pileggi who managed 486 laps. Although no lap records were broken,0 John did manage to put together some very consistent fast times in the 3.2 second bracket in three out of the six lanes on the Nuvolari Super Speedway. That’s some great racing and John deserves a big congratulations. Paul Ryer would take the third podium spot with 482 laps and Peter Lentros who moved up from the amateur race took the 4th and final pro podium spot with 453 laps.  Once again, local knowledge helped NBRC members take three of the top four finishing positions.

 Peter Lentros won the Amateur Ceramic Super Stock race with 461 laps. He won thedivision by a whopping 28 laps over second place finisher Vnce Tamburo who put up
